Abstract

A component mounting machine including a component supply device to supply a component to a supply position; a component transfer device to use a component mounting tool to pick up the component from the supply position and mount the component on a board; a component detecting section to detect whether the component is present at the supply position before or while the component is being picked up by the component mounting tool; a holding detecting section to detect whether the component mounting tool is holding the component following pickup; and a remaining detecting section to detect whether the component remains at the supply position in a case in which it is detected by the holding detecting section that the component is not being held by the component mounting tool; and a dropped determining section to determine whether the component has dropped.
